Exercise training induces mitochondrial biogenesis, while high-fat diet increases the ability of mitochondria to use long and short-chain fatty acids.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), derived from peroxisomal metabolism and the gut microbiota, have been proposed as key substrates to support mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) in extrahepatic tissues such as skeletal muscle. However, the extent to which mitochondria can oxidize SCFAs (acetate, propionate and butyrate) and the ability of exercise training and a high-fat diet (HFD) to modulate this process remains unclear. Here, we show that SCFA-supported respiration in skeletal muscle is relatively limited (18 ± 6 nmol min
